Pros

Three days. Twelve hour shifts. Management is very open and understanding. Loved my co workers. Uniform was a nice thing

Cons

Pay. Don't work here then try to transfer. They don't factor in your experience before them in the pay. 8 occurances for a years time not enough.

Pros

The co-workers are the best part of Mercy. They believe in the mission and strive to uphold the values that were established by the Sisters. If you are a nurse, you have good continuing eduction and development opportunities. However these are virtually non-existent for non-nurse positions. The size of the organization allows for transfer opportunity.

Cons

Executive leadership is the single biggest con to this organization. They lack the experience to guide this organization through a post Affordable Health Care Act world. The result has been four RIFs in as many years. You have to hold your breath when Mercy freezes jobs in February because that means a RIF in June which is the end of the fiscal year. Many people (but not all) are selected for the RIF not because of their lack of productivity or quality of work, but because they have voiced an opinion that is contrary to senior leadership. They utilize a talent assessment system to profile their employees and potential hires. While there is nothing wrong with the assessment itself, their use of it borders on illegal and can create a disparate impact on protected classes. Many qualified and experienced people were not hired or passed by for a promotion because they "did not pass" the assessment. Of course they do not tell you this citing your results are confidential. Therefore transparency is lacking. Now if you work in a hospital or clinic, you will be ignorant of most of these issues. Most people on that side are unaware of the corporate corruption. To anyone wondering, I was not part of a RIF. I voluntarily left on my own accord. Also I was never passed by for a promotion. In fact I was promoted several times. I do have a moral compass and think it is important for people to know what they are getting into if they join this organization.
